Abstract
Fresh, whole potatoes are washed, peeled and cut into pieces. The pieces are blanched, treated in a sulfite solution and then partially dehydrated to a moisture content of between about 35-65% by weight. The partially dehydrated slices are then steam cooked and subsequently dehydrated to a shelf stable moisture content of less than 10 percent.
